Go directly to the soup kitchen

Learn to program

>>57032095
Become a neet and contemplate your life like me

I mean it is

>>57032095
Not too late to start actually programming stuff and creating a decent portfolio
Jobs aren't just going to just come to you unless you've put out some exceptional projects/contributions

>>57032095
If you don't have a job lined up already you're fucked and might as well apply for NEETbux

Get a comfy programming job and make money

>>57032095
If it goes anything like it did for me, you get a well-paying full-time job with benefits doing something you enjoy, and you live happily ever after.

pretty much 100% right

BECOME SOFTWARE ENGINEER FOR SHITTY STARTUP

or alternatively, if your degree is from a reputable establishment:

BECOME SOFTWARE ENGINEER FOR A HIGH RANKING BUT STILL PRETTY SHITTY CORPORATION

you move to a big city if you aren't already in one

anything less than 200,000 people looks like this

Go back and major in mathematics.

I went back to school to get a CS degree after years in the industry.

Most kids at school did way too little. Some didn't even care about their CS classes or learning or grades.

I not only was doing class work, I would read more and program more to go over what I learned in class.

Plus I was doing projects on the side to make money.

I just worked much harder than my classmates. Not just on course work, but my own programming projects.

If you have not done it yet, go to Github. Look at popular projects where the maintainers commit pull requests. Look at issues people are having in a project whose language you know somewhat (C++, Python, Java, whatever). Send a pull request fixing one of the bugs. See if it gets committed. See if the maintainers give you advice on how to improve the patch. Rinse and repeat a few times.

If you say "why should I make the effort" to spend a few hours in one week doing this...there's no hope for you.

None of the kids in my class knew what software version control was (if you submit a pull request to Github, you would know). Which means they are so lacking in knowledge to make a contribution to a company it's hard to describe. Fixing a bug reported to a trouble ticket system would be a start.

People who work, learn, work, learn and keep at it do very well. Most people don't work hard enough. I know a number of people who became very wealthy, usually they were programmers who started companies (a few were programmers who joined established companies).

I never understood this bullshit. You might as well start your own programming contractor business and tell the hiring managers to fuck off when they try to wage-enslave you

Do your resume up in LaTeX, then apply until you get something
